Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved novel Chapter 182

Jerome's POV: 

I was finally able to get a good night's sleep after many days.

In the morning, I got out of bed quietly as I didn't want to disturb Skylar's sleep.

After all, she was pregnant and could use all the rest she could get.

As soon as I kissed Skylar on the forehead, my phone vibrated inside my pocket.

I took it out and found that Anthony had sent me a message.

"How is everything going between you and Skylar? Caroline and Austin are getting married.The queen's coronation ceremony will be held in just a few days.Jennifer and I have just come back to the kingdom.I'm sorry that we haven't been able to visit you and Skylar because there's a lot going on here right now, but hopefully, we'll see you both soon."

After reading Anthony's message, I texted back.

"Mr.Jones, where are you?"

Shortly after the message was sent, Anthony sent me his location via text.

Judging by his words, I guessed that Anthony was in a tough situation.

After all, Austin wanted to kill him.

"What's wrong?" Skylar asked me as she woke up and sat up on the bed.

"I just got the news from Anthony that Caroline and Austin are going to get married.Jennifer and Anthony have returned to the Osman Kingdom.They're going to have to deal with a lot on their own." Skylar frowned.

"Jennifer and Anthony's situation will only get worse after Caroline and Austin get married.After all, Anthony gathered Dana and others to confront Austin and overthrow him." I decided to tell Skylar everything that was on my mind.

"Things are going to get ugly for Anthony and Jennifer.Skylar, I have to find a way to go back and help them."

"You're right! I'm worried about Jennifer too.Please take me with you!" Skylar jumped out of bed and started packing her clothes.

"All right, let's go together then.Besides, I can't leave you here all alone.But there's no need to rush.Let me do the packing.You can freshen up and have breakfast."

I urged her to calm down, even though I found her sudden burst of enthusiasm amusing.

"Okay!" Skylar smiled at me, but suddenly, as if something occurred to her, she shook my hand.

"Jerome, I almost forgot to tell you that I still owe Robin some money.I have to pay him back before I leave."

"No problem.We can return it to him together later on," I said with a gentle smile.

After breakfast, we packed up our stuff before Skylar and I went to visit Robin.

I didn't want Skylar to have too much contact with him, so as soon as Robin opened the door, I explained why we were there and tried to give him a bank card.

At first, Robin refused, but after Skylar and I insisted, he finally accepted it.

Before we left, Robin said with a bitter smile, "Goodbye and I wish you two a happy life together."

"Thank you! We wish you a very happy life as well." I nodded politely and said goodbye to Robin.

Then, I took Skylar to the airport.

As soon as we arrived at the Osman Kingdom, we went straight to Anthony's private residence to look for him.

Jennifer's POV: 

I was busy reading something in the study when Anthony came in.

"Honey, what are you doing?" he asked, hugging me from behind as I held his arms and kissed him on the cheek.

"Anthony, I'm trying to find a way to remove the Love Curse.I won't be able to rest easy unless the curse is removed from you." I turned the pages.

"These books were given to me by the wizards.Maybe I can find some clues on dispelling the curse."

"That's very sweet of you, honey." Anthony grabbed my hands and pulled me up from the chair.

"But I want you to come with me.I have a surprise for you."

I looked at Anthony curiously as I followed him out of the study.

Anthony had a surprise for me? I kept trying to guess what it could be as I walked behind him.

A bouquet of roses? A gem? Anthony led me all the way to the hall.

"Jennifer!"

Suddenly, I heard a familiar voice and before I could even realize what was going on, I found myself in a warm embrace.

It was Skylar! So that was what Anthony was talking about! Indeed, this surprise was very precious to me.
